Galaxy S8's facial recognition system is easily fooled by a photo Comments

PandaQueen, 01 Apr 2017Which is better? Iphone or Android? And should I wait for this or just buy Iphone 7 plus? I am lost.SONY XPERIA XZS or PREMIUM, that's what you won't regret for any of your precious dime of budget spending on that

shiva75, 01 Apr 2017You know what I never peep into any news about iPhone and Apple products as I don't like them ... moreIt's about freedom,we are free to hate and to like and free to disclose it along,IRIS Scn on S8 is easily fooled by a photo but we don't want to be easily fooled by SAmmy

You know what I never peep into any news about iPhone and Apple products as I don't like them and not interested at all. But here I see lots of Samsung haters curiously reading the updates abt Sammys new products and posting hasty comment. Why u guys are wasting ur time and being negative abt something when u don't like it.

ronweasley, 01 Apr 2017So the iris scanner works properly right ? RIGHT ? this is only the stupid face lock thing ?Yup. Face unlock not new. Old stuff brought back but still unsecure. The iris is better.

PandaQueen, 01 Apr 2017Which is better? Iphone or Android? And should I wait for this or just buy Iphone 7 plus? I am lost.It doesn't matter which you choose. Both the iPhone 7 Plus and the Galaxy S8 are well worth your money. You can't go wrong with either of the two. But, a word of advice, if you had been using iOS for a while, you should probably go for the iP7 Plus. And if you had been using Android for a while, you should probably wait for the GS8. It's better that way.

RONN89, 01 Apr 2017i feel the whole iris scanner and facial recognition is stupid...currently ther is no better s... moredont be stupid okay.. iris scanner is fast and works in a pitch black room.. and cant be fooled.. dont be ignorant

What are the odds of someone carrying a photo of you just to unlock yo phone? What are the chances of you having a blinking picture of yoself? The fingerprint sensor is unsually placed admittedly but that's not as bad as not having a fingerprint sensor at all. In my own opinion its better to have 3 biometric sensors than having less. There's nothing worse than an under specced flagship.

To all those ignorant haters who be saying the LG G6 is better, how is a 2017 flagship with a last year chipset any better? If the S8 had SD821 instead of SD835, would you praise it and say its great?

I can't wait for a comparative review between the S8 and G6 so you can shut yo faces.

this aint even the biggest problem , people are forgetting the screens that got an inch bigger and batteries that got decreased or the same as a 5.1 device , enough about the 835 already the biggest drain in every device is the display not anything else , i think the s7 was a better choice when it came out and still is , people just like pretty mobiles and forget about the basics sometimes

Anonymous, 01 Apr 2017does iris scanner work with spectacles? anyone know?Good question.. Excellent question among a sea of fanboys fighting... As far as i know the iris recognition uses a software model of a stretched rubber dome... Or something similar to accommodate for the iris changing size at different light intensity.. Possibly it also compensates for the spectacles too... Not sure about reflectivity and such error
